What happened to your Jag?
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

I had to sell all my guitars( I have 2 left), my Marshall Amp and my setup. Why? I had some debts that needed to be taken care of and with me having no job, that was the only choice. :uh: :oops:



:(

That was the worst day of my life :uh:

Oh my God, I am so sorry man. I would have cried if I had to sell a Les Paul.

Man, I would cry if something bad happened to my bass.

But with my new job, I am going to save up all my money and buy myself a sweetass Les Paul, and if that takes too long to save up for, I will aim lower and get myself a nice Strat. And if I feel emo, I might buy myself an Ovation acoustic, I just love those suckers. They play so well.

I decided that because I am getting a huge bonus on the 19th, I am going to look at some Strats and probably pick one up. I figure $500 can go a long way in getting a nice strat.

I have a squire. But it's older, like 1996ish, before they became shitty.

I have a squire. Actually, it's my brother's, and it's from about '96, too. And I've got a crappy little acoustic, a degas, a little classical acoustic that I don't know what it is, and a full sized Yamaha acoustic that's my aunt's.

No way! I have a crappy little degas amp! It works when it's not being a PMSy bitch, which is rarely

Johnathan - of course I play it. It's my guitar. Her name is Jocelyn :drool:
